Emoji-Pixel-Party (Walk-in/Walk-out Workshop)
Emojis come to life for all ages: Our talented face-painting artists transform you into your favorite emoji, which you can then use as a digital sticker in your messaging app. A simple brushstroke becomes a digital greeting – blurring the line between you and your screen.
Become a pixel hero: Create imaginative characters with Iron-on beads, from fun emojis to pixelated Minecraft heroes, or dive into digital creativity – there’s something for everyone here! Relax as you bead, or try your hand at PixilArt to design animated GIFs or cool icons that give your computer a fresh look. Whether you go analog or digital, take your pixel creations home with you!
